I will never make another chickunuya joke as long as I live for that damn virus is no joke.
Well I don't know for sure if that is what I got over the weekend for I did not get the rash which I hear is part and parcel of the package. And the fever and cold never really took on but I suspect that was because my ganja and white rum home remedy killed that in the bud. But lord the pain, I have never had such pain apart from in child birth.
When it hit on Saturday morning, I swore I had aged about 40 years overnight as I felt like someone who had never stood up on my own two feet for a long time. The pain was everywhere too but worst at the front of my feet so I tried walking on my heel but I could barely stand up. Then I could not lift up my right hand, my left thumb hurt like hell and my head felt like it was splitting.
It took twelve Panadols before I could take a few steps without writhing in pain.Thank god for Al as he really was my saviour this weekend.
The minister of health keeps telling us there is no chik-v epidemic so I want to know what it is the at least 15 people that I personally know are having and so many other people around the island who are complaining about this strange painful illness.
Maybe I did not have chikungunya, but whatever it was it was one hell of a virus and it made me miss two important events, the trip to Noisy River and the coastal clean up on Saturday 20 September.

Two friends, one from Waterhouse and one from Portmore, both say their whole families and neighbours have chickungunya. Dunno where Fenton getting his numbers from.
